Valuable information often lead to actions, but to most people, just from left to right ear.
For example, If I learned something about natural health or herbs, I would depend less on doctors or eventually say goodbye to them, but even if you told others how they can use xx to heal xx, they would still keep going to see doctors somehow.
So question of today: did you ever wonder why some people are striving to be self-sufficient and keep learning, while some prefer being spoonfed everything?
